Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of minor undulations and creases in the surface of the sheet. There are minor abrasions to the surface which are noticeable under close inspection. There are small ink accretions along the bottom white margin, which appear inherent to the artist's working method. The sheet is hinged intermittently along the edges to the backing board. Framed under Plexiglas.
